Old Maid

Yesterday. Larry and I left The Cottage very early and drove to the country. We stopped at the dairy for goodies (ice cream) and went on to our granddaughter, Matilda’s house.

We had made a date to take a walk before Larry’s day started. We social distanced, gave them their goodies from the dairy and left for a “country walk”…..it was a beautiful morning.

We walked for about 55 min and five miles. It was glorious and went much to fast.

We came home. Larry had about 5 calls and conference calls planned and I had a meeting planned with my Book Club.

Book Club was awesome. I loved seeing the smiling faces that I respect and care for so much. Our meeting was held on a ZOOM conference call.

We discussed this meetings great book and visited a wee bit. The time with Book Club went by very fast too.

Before I knew it, it was time to get the full moon picnic ready. But, it was very windy as the storms prepared to come through. Larry and I decided to picnic inside. We went to Chuys, where they had our order ready and brought it home.

We picnicked in bed…and watched TV. It was rather fun and we chatted a lot. The clouds were so thick, we never did see the moon. I was disappointed

Here is the puzzle that Larry and I have been working on. There are TWO pieces left to place….and neither one of us want to be the one to finish the puzzle. …..remember when we were small, and the last of anything was marked by saying, if you eat the last piece, you will be an old maid. If you were last at anything, you would be an old maid (it came from the Old Maid card game that we played as children) …. Larry better finish that puzzle today. I would like to put it away and have the dining room table back in service again.

Please remember to keep smiling. Things seem so confusing right now, but soon it will be ok, even if it is a “new” normal.

Taking deep breaths and being kind, make it possible to be happy when the day is done. (From my experience, no one wants to hear complaining and opinions.) I send you my love and wishes for the best day possible! Keep smiling.

Love you beyond that full moon.
